Read More..."A dream house in a wonderful city" When we asked Ian & Cindy for an exchange, we were so happy when they accepted! We love Canada and Vancouver, but Gibsons has its own charm, it was really impressive. The contact before and during the exchange was loving and helpful. Everything was well arranged, very spacious and clean. Thank you for the warm welcome letter and the gifts. We have every minute in your home as well as our trips to Vancouver and Whistler, thank you!

Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Comox / Courtenay is a modest sized community on the East Coast of Vancouver Island, BC. Our home is in a quiet subdivision with parks and walkways very close by. There are sandy beaches close by and beautiful trails through parks and natural forest, there are many creeks and waterfalls to discover. Although we are on the edge of an urban area with all it's benefits we are surrounded by quickly accessible green space, beaches and a natural harbour estuary with riverside walks. The Comox Valley airport is only a couple of miles away, though we rarely hear the planes coming or going.
